Hi, This script would not work as the GTP variable is not declared at any point. You would need to change your action to something like submit.php then in this file you can decide where you want your browser to be redirected to. Something along the following lines: [code] // submit.php [\code]

I wish I had that problem. No matter what I do to $From or where I put it, the email shows up as unknown sender with the from field blank. Any ideas? [/quote] Just had a quick look at your code and it would seem your trying to put your From header in from a variable. I would do a quick check to make sure that the variable has data in it at this point. And maybe as a test manually enter the from header just to see if it is your variable or your coding thats causing the problem. Below is a simple code i got off php.net [code] <?php $to      = 'nobody@example.com'; $subject = 'the subject'; $message = 'hello'; $headers = 'From: webmaster@example.com' mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?> [/code]

Were you able to find a way around it? [/quote] Well!! At this time i was not as experianced with php as i am now and all of the submissions were going to one address so either i would allow an exception on the anit-spammer or i would not place a from address in the from header which would automatically give you an address of eg. username@server1.webhost.com which was fine as like i said only one address recieved the email. Now i would prob have used a IMAP command and used that address purly for sending out as this type of email thatway everything would resolve back to the mailserver.

I have used the mail() function in a few of my scripts but the main falw is that anti-spammers tend to catch the emails as the webservers ip address tends not to resove back to the From: headers mailserver. ie. www.scripts2go.co.uk 10.0.0.1 - is the webserver. sales@scripts2go.co.uk 10.0.0.2 - is the mailserver. and when the senders ip address is resolved to an IP which is differant from the senders From Header the spammer eats it.

On Second thoughts i prob would have used a switch statement instead. [code] switch ($_POST['Age']) { case "1": $Age = "Younger than 13"; break; case "2": $Age = "13 - 18"; break; case "3": $Age = "19 - 25"; break; case "4": $Age = "26 - 35"; break; case "5": $Age = "36 - 50"; break; default: break; } [/code]

The space makes it a different statement.

Hi, I would have the delete image link to a script that deletes the record but requires confirmation first. ie: delete.php?id=10 asks for confirmation which then submits to it self. delete.php?id=10&confirm=true would the delete the record. You could use a IF statement to make sure confirmation = true. Either that or you could prob create a JavaScript Yes / No popup.

I designed an app for my workplace that showed a thumbnail of an image on the home page and a full size image with a description once it was clicked on and i just inserted the filenames into the database with the relevent information and stored my images in a folder.

The only way i can get it to work is by echoing the table and placing slashes (\) infront of the quote marks. e.g. <?php if ($pagename == 'login.php') { echo " <table border=\"0\" align=\"center\"> <tr> <td>This gets displayer</td> </tr> </table> "; } else { [i]do somethign else[/i] } ?> Any explaintation why it won't let me code it the first way? im really not keen on echoing all my html data [/quote] You cant use " when you user echo you must replace them with ' . ie.

I know it has to do with how you set your headers, but I don't know any specifics, other than this suggestion on php.net Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Audrey [/quote] Hi, We have a spamer at my work place and it uses some of the methods below. One on the tricky one is when the computer recieves the email it will lookup the senders address and then lookup the from domain name. eg Computer recieves email from email server mail.scripts2go.co.uk from address sales@scripts2go.co.uk so firstly it matches the 2 domain names and gets a match. Then it looks up the ip address from both which in this case would be the same and wouild allow the email. Now computer recieves email from webservers mail command again from sales@scripts2go.co.uk but this time from www.scripts2go.co.uk and again it checks the domain names and gets a match. BUT when it looks up the ip address it gets the webservers IP and the Mailservers IP which do not match and will class it as SPAM. Another thing it does is check the incomming emails for strings like "Autorespond" "Do Not Reply" "Click to unsubscribe" also classing it all as SPAM.

I just created a script to clear all these out which run once a night but like you say the i could have a job with id230 and only have 12 jobs. Could have done something similar to what you have done but that would mean that anyone looking through the past jobs may find job id 20 dated 2006 and job id 1 dated 2001 which is a confused mess waiting to happen. It just depens what your wanting to attach to your id's.

Sessions are better as they run from the server side but webhosts sometimes dont allow them and cookies can be stopped by a user that turns off cookies.

I am currently designing a Flash PHP MYSQL Chatroom which will allow users to have a chatroom on their website but hosted from mine. The early beta version is availerble on my website for viewing. I would like to add a content filter option to the client that stops users from submitting certain words so i need a way of removing or detecting certain words from a variable. Once i do this i will be able to cycle through an array of words which are stored in a mysql database. All this is done but just can't seem to find the command to find the words withing the variable.

It may be your installation that is set up slightly wrong but it could be either mysql, apache or php so to eliminate php have you tried a simple echo "Hello World"; script. Do your html files display ok. Or is it just when you attempt to use mysql.

This should grab the posted variable and place it in a local variable. to make sure the information has been passed you can delete the comment tags and the variable will be printed to the screen. [code] // setup $var1 = $_POST['var1']; // echo "$var1"; $count = 0; if($var1 == 1){$count++;} if($var1 == 2){$count++;} if($var1 == 3){$count++;} if($var1 == 4){$count++;} if($var1 == 5){$count++;} if($var1 == 6){$count++;} if($var1 == 7){$count++;} if($var1 == 8){$count++;} if($var1 == 9){$count++;} // check if($count == 0){Give error} [/code]
